"Master Yuan, you can't transport the grain away, let alone to Yuzhou." Tu Kui suddenly said.
Nangong Yuanyi's eyes turned cold and he said in a deep voice: "Master Tu, now that the disaster relief grains from the imperial court have arrived in Zhangzhou, will the people still pay high prices to buy Yuan's grains? Now the only way is to transport the grains to Yuzhou as soon as possible. Yuan Mou lost all his money."
"And I got reliable news that the imperial court allocated two million taels of silver for disaster relief this time, and the King of Chu transported enough food to Zhangzhou, which means that the prince must have transported the disaster relief silver to Yuzhou. Now Yuan has this If we want to sell this batch of grain as soon as possible, we can only go to Yuzhou to sell the grain to the prince. I estimate that if the grain merchants from all over the world know that the prince wants to buy grain for disaster relief, they will definitely transport the grain to Yuzhou City."
"Except the Huo family has food, there is no way Yuzhou City can have food." Tu Kui said categorically: "As long as the Huo family is here, I can guarantee that your Yuan family's food will never be sold into Yuzhou City."
Nangong Yuanyi pretended to be surprised: "It's impossible. Once the disaster relief funds arrive, the merchants in Yuzhou will definitely sell grain to the court. They can't be so stupid. They don't make money even if they have money. What is the background of the Huo family? How dare they Are you going to stop the prince from buying food due to the earthquake?"
Tu Kui sneered: "Because the Huo family started purchasing grain a few months ago and almost monopolized the grain in the entire Yuzhou and Zhangzhou, there is not much grain left in the hands of those small grain merchants."
"How is it possible that the Huo family purchased so much grain, and they didn't know there would be a snowstorm, so how could they start hoarding so much grain a few months ago." Nangong Yuanyi looked incredulous.
"With money and power, even if there was no snow disaster, the Huo family would not worry about not being able to sell their food." Tu Kui vowed even more.
"What's their background?" Nangong Yuanyi narrowed his eyes and asked.
"Zhu Gui is from the Huo family, and the backer behind the Huo family is the current Queen Mother. Mr. Yuan, you are a merchant, how can you fight with Uncle Huo." Tu Kui's eyes showed fear.
Nangong Yuanyi seemed to have heard some shocking secret: "The grain transported from the south of the Yangtze River is not only these dozen trucks, but also a lot of it is already on the road. This has consumed all Yuan's life savings. .”
Taishou Tu smiled and said, "That's why Mr. Yuan's grain cannot be transported to Yuzhou, otherwise he may die a violent death."
At this time, Xiao Shi hurried in followed by an officer and soldier. When she saw Nangong Yuanyi, her face was full of worry and fear: "Master Qi, I found an assassin when I passed Yunju last night. My wife seems to have died."
Nangong Yuanyi's eyes were full of worry and he asked anxiously, "What happened? Why is there an assassin? How is Yue'er?"
"The person who infiltrated Yunju and assassinated my wife was the traitor Zhu Gui, but fortunately my grandpa was there at the time and was rescued in time. My wife is now fine," Xiao Shi reported.
Nangong Yuanyi felt relieved and said, "It's okay."
Turning around, he said in a deep voice to Tu Kui: "Prefect Tu, you just said that Zhu Gui is a member of the Huo family. Is it true that you want to kill him because he is a member of the Huo family? I have no grievances against them." "
At this time, Nangong Yuanyi suddenly remembered and said: "The transaction between me and the prefect is only known to the two of us. Who revealed it..."
Suddenly, before Tu Taishou could react, Nangong Yuanyi said angrily: "Tu Taishou, did you join forces with Zhu Gui to harm me just to get the food that I got for free?"
